Lookup List

You use the Lookup List dialog box to enter name:value pairs. When files are converted to XML, Stylus Studio uses the information in the lookup list to translate a name (or code) to a corresponding value. For example, you might have a lookup list that contains state abbreviations and their full names, or error codes and the corresponding descriptions. You can enter lookup list values manually, or by copy/pasting tab- and comma-separated text files into the Lookup Value table in the Lookup List dialog box.
